There is no release (CD or LP) of any original music from RIO BRAVO, other than the songs. The CD "The Western Film World Of Dimitri Tiomkin" has 8 minutes of the score re-recorded by The London Studio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Laurie Johnson. The Legacy CD is the longest release of THE ALAMO's soundtrack.

RIO BRAVO has no soundtrack score release at all, only the Dean Martin-Ricky Nelson songs on vinyl way back when. And THE ALAMO original soundtrack recording has nothing more comprehensive released than the 23 track Legacy label CD. Hope this helps

Have to say I love the rerecord. It is astoundingly faithful to the original.

You listen to music on your Ipod? Okay. I think SAE has samples online, I'll give it a listen. But there's no substitute for the original. Anybody need Prague's EL CID I've got one to sell or trade, only played once. Yes, whenever I'm out and about.

I'm pretty sure the Tadlow recording is missing a little bit of music too. I can't answer about the laserdisc of the Alamo having an isolated score as I never owned it. However, I asked Robert Harris about whether the original recordings survived a few years ago on the Home Theater Forum (before MGM prevented his restoration effort), and his response seemed to indicate that the tapes no longer exist.

As much as I like the Tadlow recording, it's still a shame about the originals. I'm pretty sure the Tadlow recording is missing a little bit of music too. Yep, it is. There's a section missing from the swordfight between Rofrigo and Gormaz--one of my favourite bits, actually. Also a different ending to the 13 Knights battle scene. Other small changes. Whatever one's opinion of the re-recording, the composer conducted original is always preferable given decent stereo sound. Should the original tapes ever turn up I'd buy the CD in a heartbeat. If they ever do turn up (which I still hold out a little bit of hope for), I'll definitely buy a CD of the originals. By the way, the duel is one of my favorite parts of the score, too. Edit: come to think of it; I'm pretty sure the first few seconds of The Expedition in the film are different from what is heard on the Tadlow. Apologies for driving this thread off-topic.
